After three rounds of the Foxwoods Open (March 19-23) , four perfect scores have emerged: GMs Darmen
Sadvakasov, GM Keith Arkell and IMs Alex Lenderman and Robert Hess all have 3/3. In round three, Hess upset GM Alexander Ivanov in a crazy game to join
the leaders. In round four, Lenderman and Sadvakasov will face off on board one, and Hess and Arkell will play on board 2. Check out full round four pairings here.

In the following position, Robert must have had a burst of Tal-like inspiration. Or was it frustration over a purposeless knight? Either way, can you guess what he played?

The game continued 20...dxe4 21.fxe4 Nh6 (If Nxd4 Qxd4 Bc5 Qc4 Bxg1 Rxg1, White has an overwhelming attack.) Nh6 however, was not much better for Ivanov after which, as you can see below, Robert's pawns and bishops quickly wreaked havoc.

Darmen Sadvakasov of Kazakhstan also played thrilling chess to defeat Filipino GM Mark Paragua. Before checking out the entire game, can you guess what he played in the following two key positions, which seem unlikely to come from the same game.
